Curse the Son - Delirium Vinyl and CD editions
Connecticut-based stoner and doom metal merchants CURSE THE SON announce the release of their fifth album "Delirium" on Ripple Music this September 6th, and present the debut single with a groovy cover of Witchfinder General's "R.I.P.".
Curse the Son have endured the tests of time. Lineup shifts, traumatic personal losses and a global pandemic have found the band in a vastly different world. A dark world. A world that doesn’t feel very stable. Lyrically and conceptually, “Delirium” finds Curse the Son exploring and re-experiencing the fear, isolation, confusion and death from a time not so long ago. A slow descent into madness as we self-medicated, forced others away and suffered from the greatest losses of all: each other. Psychologically, the devastating emotional damage inflicted upon us and our children will never fully be understood. Drenched in these drowning vibes, “Delirium” was created.
Musically and sonically, “Delirium” has the fuzzed-out gloomy electricity of “Psychache”, with a knowing glance towards the advanced songwriting structures found on “Isolator”. Following 2020’s more experimental “Excruciation” album, Curse the Son decided to make “Delirium” a return to more familiar territories. Elements of all eras of the band are evident here on this release. Crushing doomed out numbers like “Liste Of The Dead” and “This Suffering Is Ours” state their case with mind-numbing heaviness. In contrast, the more uptempo and challenging “Deliberate Cruelty” and “Delirium” offer more dynamic and complex themes. As long time fans of Witchfinder General, the band also paid homage to these underrated stoner/doom originators with a groovy cover of “R.I.P.”.
